Another option is Intercity Lines. I've used them before and they were great.

keep in mind that a majority of the companies out there offer services but they are just brokers....so they find a company and a rate and then tack on their fees . i can't speak for the others mentioned , but Incognito is their own company and does their own dispatching , which is why they were $300-$400 cheaper

your mom
I have used intercity lines three times

2 cars from LA to Houston TX

And C63 from SFO, CA to Houston, TX.

Trust me, they might be slightly more expensive, but their service is totally worth it.

- AMG private lounge members can get a discount. expect to pay about $1600. for 1 car.

- Your car will be wrapped in a soft cloth and then covered by another big car cover after having been secured. Yes, this is part of the enclosed delivery. I think thats all they do.

- your car will be transported on ONE vehicle from pickup to delivery. No driver switching - no truck change - no hub bull ****. The damm thing is double wrapped for the entire journey..

- Some of the major names use intercity lines.

- You can track the exact position of the car - anytime.

- the driver is available all the time.

Here is the guy I used to get my C63 from FL to AZ. He runs along the southern states. He logs on to the brokerage clearing house and bids on jobs, but if you call him direct he'll just quote you direct without going thru the broker process. He does not operate a closed rig. I asked him to top mount mine and he did. Car arrived with no issues.

Accross the years I have used several transport services. Always open transporters without a problem. Last time I asked the MB sales dude as they frequently fetch cars for customers. That tip worked well, WA to CA.

FF. W212 E63 M156 non-pano 18" P2 ParkT NightV (gone but will be missed).
Mounting all the way at the front is probably the best for open transporter so the car wouldn't have to be moved on and off until it gets to the final destination.
